Covid-19 first and second waves
were pressing times for the entire country, considerably more in the remote areas
of the nation where healthcare still has limited reach and resources. During
these times, Dr. Rashid Azim became nothing less than God’s messiah by going
out of his way to help those in need. During peak outbreaks, he not only
provided free online and offline consultations to patients but went a step
ahead to provide food and medications to those in need.
Dr. Rashid is notable in his
district for providing excellent care and extending help to the villages in
times of natural calamities like floods. He regularly organises many medical
check-ups and blood donation camps for those who don’t have access to
healthcare. During winters, he travels to nearby areas, distributing blankets,
clothing, and food to the underprivileged.
On an inspiring mission
Despite Dr. Rashid’s strict
schedules, he ensures taking out time and driving to nearby village alleys in
the tractor, carrying food packets for approximately 100 families. In these
villages, he asks around for families who are in dire need of help.
Dr. Rashid Azim says, “I want to help as many
people as I can. I get together with my family and staff to prepare packets of
pulses, rice, and other essential grains to distribute in the villages on
weekends. Sometimes, I also carry packets of salt, onions and potatoes, and
milk for babies in these villages.”
Talking about his experience
during the second wave of COVID-19
“The second wave was challenging
for me, as it was for doctors across the country. In our area, we were running
low on oxygen and just had ten cylinders with us. However, I was able to
arrange for a few more. Although demand was great and we lacked resources, I
did my best to save as many lives as I could. The best part is that none of the
patients who were admitted to my clinic died. I made it a point to provide
treatment to patients at a very affordable cost. Some even for free, since
people are poor here, and I just wanted to make my service accessible for them
so they wouldn’t hesitate to come and get immediate treatment for Covid-19.”
Recalling his experience of how
he had to isolate himself completely from his family to protect them from
infection, he shares, “I shifted my family to the third floor. I would use a
different passageway to enter my own house. It was quite an experience for all
of us.”
Dr. Rashid on using HealthPlix
during COVID-19
“I recommend HealthPlix EMR to other doctors, and I also urge my patients to download the HealthPlix Patient App so that we can interact more effectively and keep track of their medical information. It’s extremely beneficial for both patients and doctors, as whenever I update, add, or remove some medications during a patient’s treatment, they can follow my directions without any delay in checking the changes to their treatment on the HealthPlix Patient App. The best part is that we have a lot of emergencies when we need to provide a prescription to any patient right away. While manually writing a prescription takes a long time, HealthPlix EMR saves a lot of time in such situations, especially when every second counts for the patient. The lab and pharmacy are excellent features on the HealthPlix App.”
HealthPlix is honoured and proud to be associated with Dr. Rashid Azim and congratulates him for his exemplary efforts to help society and his contributions towards Bharat’s evolving healthcare ecosystem.
